Community Safety Investment Framework

The Community Safety Investment Framework is a collaborative effort between The City of Calgary and the Calgary Police Service to reallocate funding to community partners to improve support for Calgarians in crisis due to mental or emotional distress, conflict or a threat to themselves or others’ safety.

The Community Safety Investment Framework supports Calgary's Mental Health and Addiction Strategy theme of staying safe by addressing gaps in:

  • Crisis services for individuals, their families and support networks;
  • Outreach services; and
  • The emergency response system in Calgary including any gaps in racially and culturally appropriate services.
